cases including NAS and tape-out, or a complex assortment of these, the Data Protection Suite
Family offers solutions built to satisfy the needs of your business. Because there is no such thing
as a one size fits all solution, EMC has designed the Data Protection Suite Family based on
enabling you to meet service levels that align to your business objectives.

Data Protection Challenges

Companies are rethinking next generation data protection methods as a result of exponential
data growth, regulatory compliance, strict service-level agreements, and shrinking backup
windows. And IT teams face additional challenges from accelerated virtualization and the need
to better protect data residing throughout the enterprise.

The reality is that most companies are managing their applications and data in multiple
places; from on-premise traditional infrastructures to virtualized environments to hybrid and
public clouds. This calls for a data protection strategy that acknowledges the current
landscape and protects data across all consumption models because it is likely that you will
need to protect more than one of these environments for some time. At the same time,
protection and availability should be based on the business value of the data and service
levels that align to your business objectives.

Traditional solutions are inefficient because they repeatedly backup everything—duplicate files
and sub-file data segments that exist across servers, desktops, laptops, and offices. When
combined with traditional daily incremental and weekly full backups, the amount of duplicate
data is staggering and often leads to decreased performance and increased costs. Searching
for backups to recover data in large environments becomes a daunting task.

A primary driver of this exponential data growth is copy data, which includes copies for data
protection, analytics, operations, as well as testing and development. In fact, this copy sprawl is
expected to consume storage capacity and increase costs. This explosion of copy data is being
driven by the move to self-service, which has led to siloes of copy creation across the enterprise
without global oversight. Solving this copy data problem requires modern data management
which focuses on optimizing infrastructure efficiency, streamlining operations and consistently
meeting service levels across the enterprise.

Data Protection Suite Family

The Data Protection Suite Family simplifies data protection choices, making
it easier than ever for you to access best-of-breed backup, recovery, and
archive solutions that fit your specific needs. The EMC Data Protection Suite
Family provides comprehensive, industry-leading data protection to a variety of enterprise organizations. Protecting data using technology from replication to snapshot
to backup and archive, Data Protection Suite delivers coverage across all consumption models.
With solutions built to meet the needs of all types of organizations and data protection
environments, the Data Protection Suite Family protects your data no matter where it is and
against whatever happens. Here is a deeper look into each of our Data Protection Suite offerings:

Data Protection Suite Enterprise Edition

The most comprehensive of all Suite offerings is Data Protection Suite Enterprise Edition.
Protecting data through technology including continuous replication, snapshot, deduplicated and
traditional backup, and archive, Enterprise Edition differentiates itself by meeting the needs of
organizations of all sizes via a single, comprehensive offering. This Suite boasts EMC’s best-ofbreed
backup and recovery products, as well as industry-leading replication and archive.

Data Protection Suite For Backup

Data Protection Suite for Backup is a backup and recovery software solution delivering industryleading
data protection to a variety of enterprise organizations. Designed for use in physical and
virtual environments and supporting many different deployment models and protection
technologies including deduplication backup, back up to disk, snapshot-based backup, and backup
to tape, this Suite offers flexibility to mix and match components to quickly optimize performance
and data protection today and in the future, while also reducing costs.

Data Protection Suite For Applications

Data Protection Suite for Applications provides unparalleled efficiency to meet stringent SLAs on
mission critical applications. With EMC Data Protection Suite for Applications, customers are given
a solution which provides up to 20x faster backup by enabling direct backup to EMC Data
Domain® from either primary storage or the application server, and up to 10x faster recovery. It
empowers application owners/database administrators to backup directly to Data Domain through
native application utilities (like Oracle RMAN®) and also allows them to discover, automate and
optimize copies for superior copy data management. Data Protection Suite for Applications
reduces the hidden risk and cost associated with distributed, self-service copy creation by
providing global oversight of the copy data ecosystem. Finally, it eliminates, or significantly
reduces, the impact on application servers because little or no data flows through the application
server.

Data Protection Suite For Vmware

Data Protection Suite for VMware offers end-to-end data protection for VMware-based
environments including backup and recovery, continuous replication, monitoring and analysis, and
search capabilities. This offering is a software-only data protection solution that delivers simplified
deployment and administration within virtualized and cloud environments. Data Protection Suite
for VMware is unique in the market in that no other vendor provides this depth and breadth of
data protection.

Data Protection Suite For Archive

Data Protection Suite for Archive serves as EMC’s best-in-class solution for all things archiving and
e-discovery. As a part of the Data Protection Suite Family, this solution gives organizations the full
ownership and control over their information. Customers have the ability to reduce costs by
reclaiming valuable primary data storage space, optimizing server and operational performance,
and meeting company compliance regulations, eDiscovery and litigation needs.

Cloud-enabled

Many organizations are moving quickly toward cloud-based environments – private, hybrid, and
public - for greater flexibility and agility to help reduce costs. Whether you’re protecting
applications and data residing within your data center or the public cloud, Data Protection Suite
provides the same enterprise-level user experience. In particular, there is benefit in leveraging
cloud storage – specifically object storage – rather than tape, for long-term retention of backups.
With EMC CloudBoost, Data Protection Suite delivers highly-efficient, secure long-term retention of backups in private cloud through EMC Elastic Cloud Storage or a leading public cloud of your choice, as well as backups of data and applications within the public cloud. This cloud-enabled
solution underscores EMC’s commitment to protecting data across all consumption models.
